There is no industry standard for measuring ice retention, and we would hesitate to put a time period to ice retention (as some manufacturers attempt to do), because it can vary according to changes in the surrounding environment, ice quality and form and other variables. You can be assured that all possible non-electrical cooler box technology that can be incorporated into our cooler boxes has been – ice retention can therefore be relied upon as the maximum possible, exterior factors notwithstanding.

Remember that the colder your ice when you pack your cooler box, the longer it will last. Block-cut ice chunks starting at –zero temperature will last longer. Ice that is even slightly wet or dripping when it goes in will go much faster. A good tip to help ice retention is to reduce the air inside your cooler box – pack any empty space left, after ice and items are in, with towels or newspapers. Read more ice advice here.

Whether it’s heat or cold you are after, our thick walls and polyurethane insulation will keep your contents at whatever temperature you want them.

Our cooler boxes are made via a high-temperature, low-pressure plastic forming process that creates a hollow, one-piece body. The process is the same one used to manufacture white-water kayaks. It ensures a consistent wall thickness, stronger corners and near-indestructibility.

For everyday cleaning purposes, soap and warm water will do it. For more intensive cleansing or to clear any odour (odour can get trapped in finicky areas such as around the gasket or drain plug), use warm water and bleach at a ratio of 6:1 and scrub with a rough cloth or sponge.

Our hard shell coolers are available in Deep Blue and Camo Green.

Our soft shell coolers and bags are made of RIPSTOP fabric and are available in Sea Blue and Camo Green.

Our coolers were independently tested by Kevin Richardson, known as the “Lion Whisperer.” He placed raw meat inside the cooler, secured with its rubber latches and two standard padlocks, and left it with a pack of hyenas for two hours. The hyenas couldn’t break in—WILD Coolers came out victorious! Watch the hyenas vs. WILD Coolers video here.

Yes! WILD Coolers are compatible with dry ice, wet ice, or WILD Ice—whichever you prefer to keep your contents cold.
